I have searched Wikipedia, but I did not quite find the answers I need.I know these are very simple acronyms, but as many of you know, I am not a native speaker of English. Could someone be so kind to explain to me what "LMAO" stands for? And what is "BDSM"? I see this one a lot when I read about sex, and I know it is associated with sex. I'm guessing the "SM" part stands for "sadomasochist", but what does the first half- "BD" stand for? Could anyone bother to tell me? Thanks a million. D IP: Logged |

XGood then. Do you care to explain to D what BDSM is? I don't want to answer because it may make it sound like I know what I'm talking about.  Someone who likes to inflict pain (the M) or have it inflicted upon them (the S) during kinky (the B&D) sex games. Does that cover it X? I suspect you can offer a better explanation. IP: Logged |

Lol! On the nose PeaceAngel . BDSM is a fetish senerio involving a sumbmissive and a dominator/dominatrix. It could just be domination involving forceful words and phrases or... for the more kinkier stuff Lol! (Whipping, ropes... Do I need to continue? Lol!)IP: Logged |

Zala,Thanks for providing the link on LMAO. However, it is not so helpful when it comes to BDSM. Still, thanks. PeaceAngel, you said: quote: Someone who likes to inflict pain (the M) or have it inflicted upon them (the S) during kinky (the B&D) sex games.
You've got it inside-out. Someone who likes to inflict pain during kinky sex is the S (sadist), and someone who likes to have it inflicted upon him or her is the M (masochist). Sadomasochism is an intricate combination of the two. While a sadist can be one person and a masochist the other, a sadomasochist can incorporate the two polarities at the same time, in one person. Xodian, You still haven't verify the full-form of BDSM for me...or do you figure that I have guessed it right anyway?  Thanks for posting. D IP: Logged |

Actually you're spot on. But inflicting pain (or giving the idea of pain being inflicted) is just one part of BDSM. There always is a submissive and a dominator involved. The SM part of it just indicates that even though the illusion might be that the dominator wields the power, it might not be so since the submissive could just be feeding the dominator's need for power in order to control the entire senerio in his/her favor .
